Bundle: Waves Topic (GCSE Physics)

16 Resources
Bundle of 16 complete No-Prep lessons with exam questions, tasks and answers on Waves for AQA GCSE Physics (9-1) , covering the complete topic. This bundle contatins all the lessons needed for the Waves topic in AQA GCSE Physics. If you only need the lessons for AQA Combined Science then there is a smaller bundle: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-12706442 As a Secondary Science teacher, Deputy Headteacher, writer and examiner for many years I make high quality no-prep lessons so busy teachers can teach outstanding lessons without spending hours planning. These high quality lessons include explanations, different types of in-lesson assessment (all with answers) and unique exam questions. My lessons are ideal for non-Physicists - as a Biologist who retrained as a Physics teacher I know how to take learners on a journey that builds up their understanding step by step, while still going into a lot of depth. The preview videos show a representative sample of slides from each resource so that you get a good idea of what it includes before you buy. What’s Included in each lesson: • Starter / Do Now Activity • Explanation slides in “chunked” sections with animated diagrams. • Worked examples of calculations / questions.where applicable • Multiple questions in different question styles and difficulties - no need for worksheets. Each “chunked” explanation section typically includes a set of “learning check / quick questions” followed by a set of in-depth questions on the learning from that “chunk” of the lesson. All questions have answers. • Exam-style questions on the whole lesson at the end of the lesson- these are unique, based on real exam questions but not just copied from exam boards. • Answers for all questions • All easily editable to adapt to your teaching or to use in existing lessons. • Slightly humorous, at points, if you like that sort of thing. The lessons were written for AQA GCSE Science / Physics but are very likely to be applicable to other exam specifications. Please leave a rating / review and all other feedback gratefully received!

Notes on the exam spec: This lesson is for Combined Science and separate science GCSE Physics and covers all of AQA GCSE Physics 4.4.2.4. This lesson also covers the final part of 4.4.2.1 (uses of radiation and evaluating best sources) as this part of the spec worked better here. The rest of 4.4.2.1 is in the previous lessons “Radioactive Decay and Nuclear Equations” and “Activity and Half Life”. The exam spec does not make reference to some aspects that I feel are important and / or engaging when learning about radiation (e.g. effects on the body, Chernobyl) or only includes it in GCSE Physics and not combined science and so I have included some clearly marked “optional” sections. What’s Included: • Starter / Do Now Activity • Explanation slides in “chunked” sections with animated diagrams. • Worked examples of questions. • Multiple questions in different question styles and difficulties - no need for worksheets. Each “chunked” explanation section typically includes a set of “learning check / quick questions” followed by a set of in-depth questions on the learning from that “chunk” of the lesson.

Each of the three “chunked” explanation sections includes a set of “learning check quick questions” followed by a set of in-depth questions on the learning from that “chunk” of the lesson. • Exam-style questions on the whole lesson at the end of the lesson- these are uniquebased on real exam questions but not just copied from exam boards. • Answers for all questions • All easily editable to adapt to your teaching or to use in existing lessons. • Slightly humourous, at points, if you like that sort of thing. Learning objectives: Define density and calculate it. Describe how to measure the density of an irregular solid or a liquid. Explain that difference in density in solids, liquids and gases is due to the arrangement of particles Rearrange the density equation to calculate the mass or volume of an object. Use our understanding of density to predict whether an object will float in water. The lesson also covers how to read a measuring cylinder accurately (i.e. from the bottom of the meniscus and how to avoid parallax error). Written for AQA GCSE Science and Physics but likely to be applicable to other exam specifications. Please leave a rating / review and all other feedback gratefully received!
Transverse and Longitudinal Waves

Transverse and Longitudinal Waves

(1)
Complete No-Prep lesson with exam questions, tasks and answers on Transverse and Longitudinal Waves for AQA GCSE (9-1) Science / Physics. This lesson covers all of AQA GCSE Physics 4.6.1.1 / Combined Science 6.6.1.1 As a Secondary Science teacher, Deputy Headteacher, writer and examiner for many years I make high quality no-prep lessons so busy teachers can teach outstanding lessons without spending hours planning. This high quality lesson includes explanations, different types of in-lesson assessment (all with answers) and unique exam questions. My lessons are ideal for non-Physicists - as a Biologist who retrained as a Physics teacher I know how to take learners on a journey that builds up their understanding step by step, while still going into a lot of depth. The preview video shows a representative sample of slides from the resource so that you get a good idea of what it includes before you buy. What’s Included: • Starter / Do Now Activity • Explanation slides in “chunked” sections with animated diagrams. • Multiple questions in different question styles and difficulties - no need for worksheets. Each “chunked” explanation section typically includes a set of “learning check / quick questions” followed by a set of in-depth questions on the learning from that “chunk” of the lesson. All questions have answers. • Exam-style questions on the whole lesson at the end of the lesson- these are unique, based on real exam questions but not just copied from exam boards. • Answers for all questions • All easily editable to adapt to your teaching or to use in existing lessons. • Slightly humorous, at points, if you like that sort of thing. Learning objectives: Describe the features of transverse and longitudinal waves and the differences between them. Identify examples of transverse and longitudinal waves. Describe evidence that waves transfer energy but not matter The lesson was written for AQA GCSE Science / Physics but is very likely to be applicable to other exam specifications.
